WATCH: Players celebrate as Texas A&M awards scholarships to three former walk-ons

Texas A&M awarded scholarships to three walk-on players Saturday, and their teammates went crazy for them.

The Aggies gave sophomore LB Cullen Gillaspia, junior TE Tanner Schorp and junior P Shane Tripucka scholarships after all three fought their way onto the depth chart. The team posted the video on Twitter.

Schorp is listed as a co-starter on the team’s post-camp depth chart. Tripucka won the team’s starting punter job this fall. Gillaspia is a backup for the Aggies at weakside linebacker.
